BY THE WAY
«•» By: Walter Molec —
That Refugio Jury was not
foiled. The defense lawyer ar-
gued that there was no malice
behind the killing of our Sheriff
Podds end Deputy Jakubek by
that notorious Houston outlaw
»b> i« I*
And as a further excuse the
defense also argued, the killer
was arrested unlawfully —
though he was making a fight
and trouble at the Shiner
dance. Only the jury could not
be fooled by such defense.

But there is no doubt as to
how it looks more and more
in our criminal courts. No mat-
ter how bad the crime, the de-
fense always has excuses. Oft-
en, it's not how bad the crime,
but above all, how shrewd the
defense attorney.

Not Only Farmers
No wonder both ex-governors, Connally and Shivers, are
against Sen. Yarbaraugh. Most of Texas farmers are gone
and more are going: what did he do about it?
It’s not only farmers. Can our towns grow with counties
sinking more and more into the time of big plantations?
Must not it be better on farms, or it won’t be better any-
where?
Would this farm-city outlook he facing people. If small
farmers had been exempted from controls, as it’s done in
the income tax? Or were they producing any crop surpluses?
And if whatever benefits would have been paid in direct
payments on principal crops, were limited per farm, so
most of this money would go to most of the farmers? Or
are not those riots sufficient?
Fundamental in this country
Is that everyone gets ahead by
work — not by handouts. That’s
how this country was started
and got ahead. The handouts
only spoil the people.

Did not those city riots make
It plain that either it will be bet-
ter on farms, or it won't be bet-
ter anywhere?

Vice-President Agnew was
quite right The big press and
TV are not reminding people
enough about what is facing
Nothing Better
President Nixon wants to do something about the infla-
tion — which should have been done long time ago when
this inflation started. It’s much easier to start the inflation
than to stop it.
Or should it be possible today even for the Omaha (Neb.)
garbage men to enforce a pay of almost $15,000 a year- Or
for the New York and other carpenters and masons to
demand more than $10 an hour.
God for them! But who must pay for all? Or should
not people have protection against such terrorictic exploita-
tion just wrecking this country?
Also could anything better be done for all than to have
a better life on farms? Must not it be either better or it
won’t be better anywhere, as also those city riots reminded?
But most of

her from becoming a member

TEN CENTS was big money
when we were young. How
dimes have changed.
In today's economy it takes
more brains to figure out the
tax on your income than it does
to earn it.

We finally found a use for

one, open ii wide and put all
the other old brown paper bags
inside it.
A lot of traffic problems could
be solved with as much horse-
